QOTD: "Love him or hate him, Cruz knows the Constitution. By high school he had memorized the thing, thanks to an after-school program run by the Free Enterprise Institute, which had the teenage Cruz studying the Federalist Papers and traveling the state with a troupe of like-minded adolescents billed as the “Constitutional Corroborators.” His undergraduate thesis, at Princeton, was about the historical and theoretical underpinnings of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. After attending law school, at Harvard, he landed clerkships in a federal appeals court, then at the Supreme Court. And so on.

In light of his lifelong obsession with the subject, I am reasonably confident that Cruz’s diabolical plans, and thirst for world domination, are ultimately constrained by his own fealty to the supreme law of the land. What’s more, Cruz has specific expertise in the constitutional limits of the office he’s currently aiming for. His arguments against the president’s executive overreach have been backed by unique professional credentials, which actually exceed Obama’s. Both men are graduates of Harvard Law, and have been professors of constitutional law. Cruz is also the person who has successfully argued, at the Supreme Court, that an executive order issued by George W. Bush amounted to an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers." --Erica Grieder

For Greider to say that Cruz and Obama have been professors of constitutional law is as far from the truth as saying Finnicum had a 9mm in his pocket. The gun they planted, um, retrieved from Lavoy was stolen 2 years ago. As for Obama, he was never a Professor. America has descended into thoughtless Narratives upon which the people tread as though they were truths. That Millennials lack the cognitive abilities necessary to read between the lines or spot sarcasm leads me to believe that we are seeing the future, and it is devoid of critical thought.
